National Geographic Atlas of the World

"An impressive work...comprehensive, as one would expect, and visually pleasing, with subtle shadings giving the flat maps the illusion of added dimensions. The maps prepared directly from mosaics of satellite photography are stunning, the best I have seen....With a handsome atlas like this and its accompanying Web site, there is no excuse for the geographic illiteracy of many Americans."National Geographic Society Staff is the author of 'National Geographic Atlas of the World' with ISBN 9780870448348 and ISBN 087044834X.
